CPT code for Left Renal Vein Transposition and Inferior vena cava repair

Date: Aug 29, 2018

Question:

Is there a CPT code for left renal vein transposition and inferior vena cava repair? I think it should be an unlisted code, but the provider disagrees. Documentatino states it goes in as an inferior vena cava reconstruction with the left renal vein transposition.
